Having learned about volcanoes and how they erupt, year 4 recreated a volcanic eruption using some clever chemical reactions! As you can see from their reactions, they had lots of fun! Be sure to ask them how they made the ‘lava’ flow.
Everyone had a great day for Children In Need. The children completed Pudsey themed activities and were treated to Pudsey biscuits at lunch time from the Kitchen Staff.
Thank you for your generosity!
Year 4 have had a fantastic Halloween Day. We started the morning with some party games in the hall, before we moved outside to take part in a halloween themed hunt. Whilst we warmed back up, we wrote some spooky poems. This afternoon, we enjoyed treats while watching a movie. What a great day!
Y4 have been designing and creating their own Roman mosaics as part of our ‘Romans’ topic. We created the mosaics by using finger paint or tiles.
To welcome the children back to school in September, each class bubble shared the story ‘Here We Are’ by Oliver Jeffers.
We had great fun learning about our wonderful world and thinking about the special places, people and animals in it. It made us all think about how lucky we are to have such an amazing world.
We created some beautiful work to share our thoughts with everyone in school.
What brilliant work it is!

Our relationships will be hugely important for getting us through this but self-isolation, social distancing and other concerns may also place them under added pressure.

Everyone has made a great start to life in Y4. We were all feeling a little nervous last week (Mrs Wilson and Mrs Lawson included!) but after having a good chat about what would be the same and what would be different about school we all felt much better.
We are settled into our routines and it feels so wonderful to be back playing and learning with our friends. We may have only been back two weeks but we have managed to write a poem and a letter about special people and special places in our lives.
We’ve really impressed Mrs Wilson with our maths skills and our afternoons have been so busy with science, history and geography. We are looking forward to starting our ‘Romans’ topic and finding out all about the Roman Empire.
This week as part of our Science topic of Animals, including Humans Year 4 had lots of fun creating their own model of the Digestive System! We discussed the processes involved and the children followed instructions to model digestion within the human body.

Today as part of our World Book Day activities the Year 4 children read with and shared a book with the Reception children. This was a wonderful experience for all involved and the Year 4 children were very helpful and supportive. Well done!

Year 4 and 5 enjoyed a special visit from the RNLI. We now know how to be safe around and in water.
